10. R Restitution is a process. Expect on an implementation dip. Sometimes we are going two steps forward and one step backwards as we attempt to get balance between the bottom lines and beliefs. As you have noticed in the previous overheads the incidents for discipline drop down after the first restitution and rise again. It is as if the kids don’t believe we are serious about solving problems rather than punishing. After the second restitution when incidents of discipline fail they tend to stay down, especially if the parents have been involved. In the following example you will see a dramatic drop in incidents of discipline followed by a return to a series of out of school suspension. If this pattern continues there is a good chance this boy is on the way to jail. This is a sad situation because we had him engaged at one point.

13. R LINCOLN CENTER ELEMENTARY SOUTH ST. PAUL, MN Principal - Paul Johnson Our first year we started with rules. 1997-98 was a year of training for our staff in Restitution. In 1998 we started doing beliefs with staff and students. The second semester (January 1999) we had firmed up our bottom line and this helped a lot. We began the fall of 1999 year with teaching needs, reviewing beliefs, and clear bottom lines in place. We now have a peaceful school. There is an ongoing need to rebalance the bottom lines with the beliefs.

19. R  Inner city setting  Kindergarten to grade 8  peak enrollment 260 students  High transience  High level of poverty  98% of students Aboriginal  Staff, principal, parents and elders developed their beliefs  students referred to the principal for counseling or bottom line  The following graph represent information about the number of students sent to the office for discipline problems  The data has been corrected to an enrollment of 241 students.  December is often a difficult month for our students. The anticipation created in the media is not their reality. Christmas is a time of disappointment! February was a month of changes - staff away sick, lost of classrooms.  Twenty five staff members, parents and our elder attended the 2 day workshop “Restitution 1”. After this workshop our incidents of discipline began to drop every month.  In September with 150 new students we had to begin the process again realized the same decrease in discipline problems.

21. R Princess Alexandra Community School Update  In 1998, only 7 % of our students in grade 4 performed at the 50 percentile on the Canadian Achievement Test (CAT).  In 2000, 40% of our students in grade 4 performed at the 50 percentile on the Canadian Achievement Test (CAT).  In 2002, 55% of our grade 4 students are at or above the 50% percentile on the Canadian Achievement Test (CAT). That means that over 50% our students are doing as well or better than the average Canadian grade 4 student.  As of the spring 2002, we can say that all our grade 1 students can read, compare to 50% in 2000. We are on target for our goals; 1. To have all grade 1 students read at grade level by 2004. 2.To have all our students k – 4 performing at or above grade level by 2005. 3.To close the gap in our senior students’ performance to less than 2 years behind grade level by 2005. (Now, a 5 years gap is common).
